Extra tip:

~Black bean mixture can be made as per direction 4 and stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days before forming patties and cooking as desired.

~To freeze, place formed patties on a parchment-lined baking sheet and place in freezer until fully frozen, about 1 hour. Remove from freezer and cut parchment around each burger. Stack frozen burgers with the parchment in between each layer. Transfer to a zipper-lock freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months
